Programs

We are committed to breaking the period taboo and ensuring Black and Brown girls, women, and people who menstruate have healthy menstrual cycles and become agents of change in their communities. We do this work through evidence-based menstrual health education, intergenerational and intercultural community conversations, resource connection, mentorship, and sisterhood-building activities.
